Racing through life like a big waterslide,
But darkness has come
And you shall crash,
Silently
Slow down child,
Don’t run too fast.
Life is short,
It’s not bound to last.
Enjoy every second,
And praise every day.
For you never know,
When you’ll end your play.
At a school disco,
Fast dancing is cool.
But slow down and waltz
Joyfully
Slow down child,
Don’t run too fast.
Life is short,
It’s not bound to last.
Enjoy every second,
And praise every day.
For you never know
When you’ll end your play.
Take my advice,
Take things slow.
For when the end comes, you’ll be resting
Peacefully.
Slow down child,
Don’t run so fast.
Life is short,
It’s not bound to last.
Enjoy every second,
And praise every day.
For you never know,
When you’ll end your play.
